David Bowie - Life On Mars?
E/Eb E/D
|
It's a god-awful small affair
|
C# F#m
|
To the girl with the mousy hair
|
F#m/E B
|
But her mummy is yelling "No"
|
B E
|
And her daddy has told her to go
|
E/Eb E/D
|
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
|
C#
|
Now she walks
|
F#m
|
Through her sunken dream
|
F#m/E B
|
To the seat with the clearest view
|
B D
|
And she's hooked to the silver screen
|
D/Eb Em
|
But the film is a saddening bore
|
F C
|
For she's lived it ten times or more
|
Ab Am
|
She could spit in the eyes of fools
|
Bb
|
As they ask her to focus on
|
A D F#m
|
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
|
F#m F E Em
|
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
|
Em Bm Dm
|
It's the freakiest show
|
Dm A
|
Take a look at the Lawman
|
D F#m
|
Beating up the wrong guy
|
F#m F E Em
|
Oh man! wonder if he'll ever know
|
Em Bm Dm
|
He's in the best selling show
|
Dm F#m F E Ebm7b5
|
Is there life on Mars?
|
Bridge:
|
E E/F F#m C#dim Abm A Am E
|
E E/Eb E/D
|
It's on Amerika's tortured brow
|
C# F#m
|
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
|
F#m/E B
|
Now the workers have struck for fame
|
B E
|
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
|
E/Eb E/D
|
See the mice in their million hordes
|
C# F#m
|
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
|
F#m/E B
|
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
|
B D
|
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
|
D/Eb Em
|
But the film is a saddening bore
|
F C
|
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
|
Ab Am
|
It's about to be writ again
|
Bb
|
As I ask you to focus on
|
A D F#m
|
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
|
F#m F E Em
|
Oh man! look at those cavemen go

It's the freakiest show
